Coaching
"Only the development of his inner powers can offset the dangers inherent in man's losing control of the tremendous natural forces at his disposal and becoming the victim of his own achievements."
Roberto Assagioli, The Act of Will, 1974
Overview
Coaching is more than a skill or a technique for individual
and team development. It is invaluable for task performance and delegation. It
can be deployed as effectively for quick
management interactions as it can in a half hour coaching session.
Sir John Whitmore key
note address on The Future of Coaching
Coaching
is a powerful tool for developing leadership
and employee performance beyond the typical skill and motivational approaches
to professional development.
Embedded in the process of ongoing
communication and relationship building it delivers practical, commonsense approaches
to developing people and services, and is a powerful way of creating excellent
results.
Most importantly, it places people at the top of the agenda in
action not just in word and is an essential management style of the high-performing
company culture of the future. |
